Your argument was, you are not me. But you are.

I'm so confused how this could be the case unless you're actually arguing with yourself across 2 different accounts.

Obviously the individual is unique. Nevertheless some common rules pervade across all individualisms. The OP tried to argue certain rules don’t apply to everyone because everyone is different. I think the OP is wrong on which rules don’t apply. Social creatures are social, and even if a person is an unsocial natural hermit, that person still must be a social creature. No form of individualism or uniqueness can take that away. The OP tried to argue he was different. We are the same.
